ACB ARRESTS CHIZUZU IN BLANTYRE

On 12th October, 2018 the Malawi Police Service and the Anti-Corruption Bureau arrested Mr. Enoch Chizuzu for corruptly offering unspecified amounts of money to a Police Officer in order for the police officer to facilitate the release of a Pakistani who
is in custody for illegal entry into Malawi.

He was taken to Blantyre Magistrates Court where the Court informed him about the charges he had been arrested for. The Court adjourned the hearing of bail to 18th October, 2018 in order for it to determine the bail conditions to impose on him.

He is likely to be charged with one count of corrupt practices with a public officer contrary to Section 24(2) of the Corrupt Practices Act. Meanwhile the case of illegal entry into Malawi by the Pakistani and others is still in Court. They are currently on remand at Chichiri Prison.
